This is right near my MIL house and so it is very convenient. From what I can tell, this place is a better bargain with higher quality meats compared to Thirsty Cow. Thirsty Cow has become just too expensive and the quality has not been steady... instead it's been on a slow decline. This newer place was great. The staff was friendly and the ambiance was very modern. I can imagine this place is going to get really popular over the coming year. We wish them the best and hope they have a successful 2025.

As a party of two during Saturday noon, we were sat immediately, much to my surprise. We ordered the Set B to try their beef tongue and rib fingers, which are our favorite meats! The beef tongue was perfectly tender and not too coarse, and but the rib fingers were a little chewy this time. Our waiter, Chance, was amazing-- he'd picked up on things we mentioned at our table and brought them to us without even needing us to call him over! He also explained each of the options on the menu, from ordering 2 kitchen dishes and 3 meats max per round. We also asked to try their wasabi salt, and Chance took the time to bring us a tray of all the seasonings (+ ssamjang, garlic, & sesame oil for our salt) and explained what each of them were, as well as which was the most popular. We also received two ice creams, black sugar and caramel, at the end of our meal. It wasn't hard to catch the attention of Chance at all, and things always came in a timely manner, which is always a nice experience at AYCE restaurants. Definitely another BBQ place I'd come back to visit!

Food was great. Love the A5 stuff. My server Chance went above and beyond. Chance is very kind, professional, and efficient. He taught me lots of tips and tricks when it came to cooking KBBQ (e.g., like rubbing an onion (or butter) on the grill before cooking or cooking fatty meats first, some new dips/combinations to try, when to know a certain type of meat/seafood was ready. He also cooked for my table when it wasn't busy and he had time which was very nice. He even lowered down the flame for me too because I had no time to eat because my job was to cook lmao. The ambiance is very chill, good music, and good interior designing/decorations.

Gives thirsty cow a run for the money in terms of having good service, good meat, etc They clearly had their system down, our server was very friendly, didn't check too much nor too little. Helpful, he told me YOU CAN DO HALF ORDERS! Should've known that from the start! Got Set B, the Sirloin is GREAT the marinade is amazingly tasty without being overpowering. I put it up there with the galbi. Wait said 65-80 minutes with 26 parties in front of us or something but was very fast for 2 people we got bumped up it seems. Decor is quite nice, open, large space. What you see is what you get. Solid spot if you are in the area! I'd rather eat Thirsty Cow value wise!

We were in search of a new kbbq place and saw that this one had good reviews so we decided to try it out. We went in on a Sunday night and there wasn't much of a wait. We went with Set B for $48/person since that one includes the galbi, which is my favorite cut of kbbq meat. There's plenty of banchan and the set also includes cinnamon sugar pineapple, steamed egg, and spicy tofu soup in their base set. Everything from the kitchen came out hot and fresh and the spicy tofu soup was spicy but not so much that you choke on the peppers at every sip. They were short on rice paper and radish paper and had to ration it out between all the tables and gave only a little of it to us at a time. Out of the meats, we've tried the brisket, pork belly, bulgogi, galbi, beef tongue, and a bunch of others that I forgot at this point. Everything we got was great though, and the galbi is still my favorite. The meats were really good quality and all the sides were also fresh. At the end they gave us some ice cream as a dessert. We went with the brown sugar flavor which adds some more sweetness to it. Service was great and our server came by often to keep taking our orders and make sure that we had everything that we needed. They constantly changed our grills and kept refilling our sides promptly whenever we asked. Food is great and everything tasted good. I think we found a new go-to place for ayce kbbq!

Food: 5/5 the meat and seafood options are perfect. The squid was delicious and large intestine was wonderfully season. The side dishes were nicely portion and was not over seasoned. The kimchi, wasn't overly sour at all. Each meat came out thawed and easy to cook. The brisket was very tasty as well. They also have plenty options for alcohol! : ) Service: 4/5 Server was extremely quick and attentive. Amazing given everything going on, they come to your table regularly. You definitely don't feel forgotten. The staff also offers suggestions and reduce portion for those getting full. Ambiance: 5/5 Love the theme, cleanliness and openess. This is a really nice designed kbbq spot. The tables are spaces, it's NOT SMOKEY AT ALL!!! Everything just feels so clean! I'm definitely going back! The drive is easy, plenty of parking, highly recommended restaurant!

Good quality meat, quick service (it wasn't too busy when we went), and good options! The restaurant didn't feel dirty when walking in and it didn't smell too bad of kbbq. We ordered set B which had good options, my favs were the beef tongue and the picanha steak. The kimchi and cucumber were prob my fav banchan sides. The kimchi fried rice was good but wasn't that spicy so I had to eat the kimchi side with it. I really enjoyed the soft serve at the end too! Overall solid place- I would probably go here over Thirsty Cow next time.

Went to 88q last night and our server Chance made sure we were well taken care of. He checked up on us often, made sure we had everything we needed. Food was amazing, vibes were immaculate. 10/10 would come back again!

Chance honestly brought our experience to a new level with a great vibe. The food was amazing and brought out quickly by all staff members. My group and I will definitely be returning
